    i think they are a great idea. if you like them, and it seems like you do because you took time to post pics of them, buy them and put them on your car. I do think they are ugly though, a step below the teddy bear wheels

    Honestly it is your car and you can put on any wheels you want but just because you asked.. well they are ugly. I'd rather waiting for a different set to come up on CL and save my money.

    Good luck.

    Well it's not my add...I just wanted to show you that I had found a lot of wheel sets 4x100 for your car...Still seems a good deal you've got.
    When you get any update post some pics to look at them how they come up.
